    I really like the sunsets at truck stops when it's kind of busy, driver's do indigenous tasks that drivers do, and it's not real loud.

    The OM is like," You know, you really are a simple creature."

    At one metal level the following month you get free showers. Every precious metal has different amount of love points. The more precious the metal the more points per gallon you get.

    Diamond isn't a metal, but is more precious.

    Well I just got a 100 gallons. So I doubt by the time we reload and head back west I'll buy that much before the end of the month.

    So then have to start over?

    Got like $450 in TA money lol.

    Back around 1969, I think, I had a Bultaco Metralla. It was a one cylinder, 250cc two stroke road bike. Only put out around 32 hp but the whole bike only weighed 250 pounds and it was quick. Also handled the curves really good. Mixing the oil and gas wasn't automatic. There was a hypodermic like deal in the oil tank that you measured out the correct amount of oil for the amount of gas you were putting in, then shove in the plunger and the oil would get injected into the tank.
    Was probably the funnest street bike I ever had.
